What is Subscription

Subscription is a way to access PTC software licenses in a pay-as-you-go model rather than access by one large upfront cost. When you subscribe to PTC software, you’ll also get:

New releases, ongoing maintenance and security updates to keep you up and running
Ability to change capabilities so that you can access only the software you need, when you need it
eLearning content to access training on demand and improve your skills at your own pace
Assisted support with remote desktop diagnostics from certified and multi-language support engineers, and eSupport
Smart connected and proactive support to pinpoint problems sooner, see trends, and operate more efficiently

Why Customers Prefer to Subscribe

Customers purchasing subscriptions benefit from:

Faster Innovation Cycles: New products and enhancements released in shorter cycles
Shared Commitment to Success: Proactive support, eLearning, and services ensure success
Flexibility and Lower Upfront Costs: Scale up or change capabilities to meet your business needs
Cloud Deployment Options: Optional cloud deployment to lower IT-related costs

Whether you’re ready to move to subscription now or just looking into it, PTC is working hard to bring customers like you the products and solutions that make every day better.
